This is not the case when downloading the bundle from a GitHub Release synced to GHES with the CodeQL Action sync tool.

This is based on the problems reported at github/codeql-action#2705 and github/codeql-action#2400 where the base docker image doesn't include zstd compression tool. The error occurs running codeQL: Finished downloading CodeQL bundle to /home/runner/_work/_temp/ca3b4527-1a21-43d9-8713-81909027bb0a (11.1s).

The CodeQL Action incorrectly assumes that it can infer the compression method of a CodeQL Bundle from its URL. This works most of the time, but not in the case that a CodeQL Bundle has been synced to a GHES instance using the CodeQL Action sync tool.
This bug has not yet been released as part of a version of GHES, but affects customers using GitHub Connect to pull in more recent versions of the Action.
